Having @zarahsultana.bsky.social stating at a YourParty meeting last night that the Socialist position should be to leave NATO is so appallingly naive as to have me questioning my membership.

"Splendid Isolation" all over again and a total abandonment of our friends and neighbours

It's *so* bloody refreshing to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social stand by his principles & not play up to this week's focus group findings or Farage's latest utterance.

Musk now has his hands on US govt

Musk will NOT be a formal federal worker so he won't face those ethical limitations.

Wow America

Partner just found out that the Anne of Green Gables book where Anne goes to university was set in our neighbourhood (the author wrote about real places but renamed them all, so you have to be a geek to know what those places are). She is just so tickled!
